Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
The Mix & Match Book of Dinosaurs
George Sanders · 1992
74/100
👍 Worth It
The split-page mix-and-match format is exactly the kind of novelty that keeps small hands busy and small minds genuinely delighted — up to a thousand hybrid dinosaur combinations is a big promise that actually delivers. The science is light but honest, and the spiral binding suits the repeat-flip abuse it will take from a five-year-old. Out of print is the only real obstacle; worth hunting down secondhand.
